Ma N' Pa Grocery

This is definitely one of our city's hidden gems. Ma and pas grocery used to be my daily go to spot back when I went to Wilson high nearby. Their fried chicken is probably the best I've had in long beach. They also have like every flavor of guayaki yerba mate and anywhere that sells this drink is a good spot in my eyes. The sandwiches and bakery are pretty good too.

Great little store in the neighborhood! Family owned and operated.
If you ever want to step back in time where life was simple and carefree and wanted a well crafted sandwich or delicious fried chicken with Mac and cheese…this is the place!
It’s old rustic charm and it’s old vintage milk refrigerators, are such a wonderful sight to see, as this place takes one out of the present time and into a place from back then.
The most exciting item that I came across in this little store, was their homemade beef jerky. It was awesome!
I would recommend this place, if you’re ever in town, and need a quick bite to eat.
Grab a sandwich and a coke, and drive down the street to the lagoon / Marina park for a nice little picnic to decompress during lunch or after work.
I encourage the thought to Call ahead of time to see what the special of the day happens to be.

I blew it as usual! The food was so good I forgot to take a picture. The basil pasta pasta was amazing. The fried chicken was flavorful. The restaurant is 3 blocks up from my daughter's house. It's an easy watch and the food is really good. Last time out we had some terrific ribs. They have a full array of food, wine and desserts. Since we were here visiting with our boys, dogs, they were wonderful to chop up the chicken breasts into tiny pieces. One of my favorite places to eat when we are in Long Beach.

A MUST STOP whenever I am in the area. Super nice people. Great homemade meals to pick up or eat there at the picnic benches outside. Old school market with an old time drink cooler. AND The Best teriyaki jerkey around - at a great price too!

I've had their grill veggies, spinach lasagna and stuff potato. All of it was excellent! The store itself is adorable/cozy. It has an inviting nice seating area in the back and in the front. Zack, the owner, is as friendly as can be. I'm new to the area and feel like I found a gem. Who needs to cook when I can go to Ma N Pa's to get a nice home cooked meal :-)
